Summary
Edelgard lives in a world in which Nemesis has beaten Seiros, and the Agarthans evolve their technology without any ethical constraints. Magic is a heavily classified deep state secret, and humanity once again finds itself being manipulated by inhuman creatures from shadows. The recently infamous Flame Emperor struggles to strike back against this overwhelmingly powerful system of oppression with nothing but her small squad of loyal mercenaries.
What's worse, she's being haunted by flashes of another life she doesn't remember living. These flashes only seem to grow worse around the time the terrifying Ashen Demon makes their appearance. The Demon seems to hold many secrets of their own, and has an odd fixation with Edelgard's goals. The Flame Emperor fights to uncover many of these countless haunting truths.
Heavily inspired by "Edelgard of the Rebellion" by JSGuardian. Also inspired by “The Emperor and the Goddess” by Captain_Flash and “The Nature of Fire” by ShinjiShazaki. (Although, those aren’t required reading to understand this fic.)
Note: Chapter 2 is technically the first chapter of the “main story”. Chapter 1 is a brief prologue in Byleth’s PoV.

Summary
One night while Sarah is baby sitting, her oldest niece wishes her little sister away to the Goblin King. Sarah offers him double or nothing: she will run the Labyrinth instead of her niece and if she loses, he gets to keep both girls. But are things really what they seem?
Some notes about this fic:
1. The timeline is shifted forward. I wanted this to take place in the current time, but still have Sarah in her early 40s. The movie doesn't actually specify what year its in, so I've shifted the timeline forward by about 10 years to suit my own needs for the story.
2. There is mild smut (or what I consider mild) at the beginning of the story. It will get smuttier as it goes along, but it will take bit to get there. Tags will get updated to reflect the appropriate smuttiness as it comes (heh), but you can skip the smut and still follow the plot.
3. This is NOT a Marvel crossover! A character that appears in the MCU is featured, but they are NOT the MCU version of that character.
4. If you see grammar or spelling errors, please feel free to point them out so I can correct them! -
